We all know Ed loves kids but what if he had to look after a kid that’s p much like him when he was younger? Someone temperamental yet smart and ambitious and very hard to keep a leash on? I feel like he’d either end up arguing with said kid 24/7 or be especially cautious to make sure they don’t make the same mistakes he did. Or both. Jesus. Poor kid wouldn’t even know if he hates them or not. One moment they’re both yelling and the other he’s teaching them life lessons.

I could most certainly see that happening. I think he’d most likely be a good mix of both of those things you just mentioned 😀 It’s how Ed works.

Ok Ed you can act tough all you want but given the chance we know that you would pour your heart out to Winry and love her with all your heart and probably never leave ever. You try to keep her at a distance because you know that she has that effect on you and it scares you a bit how much you love her

You said it, anon. This is how I see it as well 😀 (And during his journey he doesn’t contact her bc he’s afraid if he’s gonna spend too much time with her he doesn’t want to leave)
